Thinking on the story

lissalysikanSo. I decided a work with the story. Not "fix" what was, just use as a guide of where it has to go. In the process of thinking it I realized I didn't has a idea of the end result - where a boss guy realizes a nature of Niamh, and long term (kay, not really long) relationship that is needed. So - trying to avoid rewriting a start has come to know needs rewrite. Was thinking too much big picture and got too much minor detail that didn't actually lead there. I'm babbling, I know - just thinking through where is going.
Niamh is a fae but doesn't know it. Ciarán is not a fae but has had reason a learn of fae. Has made a 'feeling' that Niamh is, but, being a rational man in a computer field is not one to jump to conclusions (I know, unrealistic, but there are really people that don't jump to magic or religion as their first guess - really! They exist!). BUT - he does has a thinkings.
And then is the desk clerk. Was told she doesn't seem realistic cause front desk clerks don't act that bad even to odd peoples. Trust me - they do. I has been the "you look strange and talk strange so I can belittle you all I want and get out my inner whatever-shit on you because you can't tell anyone" victim lots. Boy is it fun seeing them get called out for it when someone that understands me appears. But that's a side track, since Niamh does speak. I suspect the bitchy desk clerks would treat a child-like biker with strange looks just as bad as they treat a mute with strange looks, so is thinking a keep it, just redone better. Maybe soften it so the desk clerk stays in a story as a minor pain-in-the-butt.
Writing this a tell myself what is going on since when I make a notes in the story I seem to ignore them but when I write them another place is better at remembering the issues I raised. (no one ever said I was rational, not even me).
The current temp title is "The Border" since the story is of a place where fae and regular world interconnect.
Is hard a write a story when already has the idea and it isn't just 'flowing'. Harder still without a editor what tells me of a mistakes fast.
